Submersion god roll guide for Destiny 2 PvE and PvP

Submersion is another new Crossbow added to the game with Destiny 2: Ash & Iron. This High Impact Framed weapon sits in the Heavy slot of the inventory, and is mostly meant to shut down bosses and elites. With the introduction of Crossbows alongside the Desert Perpetual Raid, players have been slowly getting familiar with the weapon type.

This article lists the best perks on the Submersion Heavy Crossbow for PvE, and a few more perks that will make your life easier in PvP. However, we do not recommend using this weapon against other players. Instead, go for Swords, Rocket Launchers, or Machine Guns.

How to get Submersion in Destiny 2?

Submersion can be obtained from Event Engrams via any event in the game. This means that the ongoing Territory Control, or any other events in the future, such as Heavy Metal, Arms Week, or Festival of the Lost, will have this weapon featured in their Engram.

An Event Engram is usually given away at Rank 2 of any Event tracker. Aside from that, you can run the event activity and get the weapon as a drop, too.
